Laurie Gross

Artist Statement

Laurie Gross is a nationally known artist recognized for her extraordinarily inspiring and spiritually based work. She reaches into biblical text and her rich Jewish tradition to create works embodying universal themes and rich metaphor. Much of the creative inspiration for her work is to be found in liturgical text and midrashic material.

Her studio has expanded over the past few years to include a staff of other creative artists who, together as a team, are involved in creating some of the finest work that is currently being designed for synagogue worship environments. Seven of the studio's projects have received national awards from the Interfaith Forum on Religion, Art and Architecture and The American Institute of Architects in the area of religious art.
